Football Prediction
Newcastle United and Paris Saint Germain will be involved in a fierce battle in France as both look to seal a qualification slot.
The pair suffered losses last time out in Group F, so PSG sits second on six points and Newcastle lies just two behind. A repeat of October’s 4-1 win on Tyneside would therefore take the Magpies above their illustrious hosts in the table.
H2H / Stats
This is the second competitive meeting between these two sides, with Newcastle beating PSG 4-1 back in October.
Team News
Warren Zaire-Emery picked up an injury during the international break and is now out until January, while PSG remains without the likes of Sergio Asensio and Marquinhos. Danilo Pereira, Presnel Kimpembe, and Keylor Navas are approaching fitness, but it remains to be seen whether they can be included in the squad for this match.
Newcastle’s list of absentees remains incredibly long, with Dan Burn, Elliot Anderson, Harvey Barnes, Jacob Murphy, Matt Targett and Sven Botman all injured, while Sandro Tonali is suspended long-term. The Magpies also face doubts over both their strikers, Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson, though they’ll hope to have at least one of them ready for this match.
Probable Line-Up
Paris Saint-Germain XI: Donnarumma; Hakimi, Skriniar, Hernandez, Mukiele; Ruiz, Ugarte, Vitinha; Dembele, Ramos, Mbappe
Newcastle United XI: Pope; Trippier, Lascelles, Schar, Hall; Longstaff, Guimaraes, Joelinton; Almiron, Isak, Gordon
Verdict
Neither side is at full strength due to the injury epidemic that seems to be sweeping elite-level football, but an entertaining contest is still very much on the cards in Paris where the hosts should see this through.
Bet on PSG win❌
Anytime Goalscorer
Kylian Mbappe✅
Even if Mbappe wasn’t in red-hot form, you would reasonably expect him to do some damage here. The Frenchman has been involved in seven goals in 12 Champions League appearances against English sides, scoring five and assisting two.
